JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, 
MEXICO PLANS REOPENING PROCESS

Over the past few months, I've received a number of calls asking what's going on in Mexico with COVID-19 and the reopening process. But about the time I put together a response, everything changes. I hope with this report the facts will remain solid.
Before I say things are looking up, a friend of mine has a doctor friend who was 60 years old and in good health. This doctor contracted COVID-19. Ten days later he passed away. This situation along with countless others reaffirms that no matter where you are, you still need to wear a mask, wash your hands frequently and observe the social distancing.
Coronavirus:
1) Guerrero is the second state to go yellow. 
Guerrero will ease restrictions Monday and 'welcome more tourists.
Governor Héctor Astudillo announced Friday that Guerrero will become a yellow light “medium” risk state as of Monday. He said the move to yellow will allow the state to ease restrictions and as a result, welcome more tourists. Governor Astudillo highlighted that hotels will be able to open more rooms and restaurants will be able to seat more diners. 
Astudillo said the loosening of restrictions will boost the state economy, especially in the main tourism destinations of Ixtapa, Taxco, Acapulco, and Zihuatanejo.
2) Mexico City remains orange.
Bars, cantinas, and other entertainment venues were permitted to reopen at reduced capacity almost three weeks ago although they had to tweak their business model and operate as if they are restaurants while theaters were allowed to reopen at 30% capacity last week. 
“It’s good news but we still have to look after ourselves; face masks, healthy distance, and … a lot of hand washing,” he said.
3) Most of Mexico’s 32 states are orange on the current map, although six – Zacatecas, Hidalgo, Baja California Sur, Nayarit, Aguascalientes, and Colima – are still painted red.
4) Baja Norte:
▪Courts reopened with Criminal Cases being heard 4 hours a day and Civil Cases being heard the other 4 hours.
▪20% of the restaurants have opened with a small number of people eating inside and very few eating outside due to space requirements.
▪If you try to take more than 1 (one) case of beer the surtax can be up to 190% that’s one hundred and ninety percent!
▪Some locations are taking your temperature and some have installed special floor mats to try to detect COVID-19.5) Baja Sur:
Coronavirus restrictions will be lifted further next week in Baja California Sur (BCS), the Ministry of Health reported, as the state moves from level 5, or critical risk, to level 4, considered high risk on the state’s health alert system. 
As of Monday, businesses will be able to operate at 40% capacity, up from 30%. 
Churches, movie theaters, and gyms may also reopen next week for the first time in five months.
I'm still taking all calls to our office from 9 AM to 5 PM, 7 days a week on my cell phone, so if I don't answer please know I will get back to you ASAP to help. After hours, if you leave us a message, Marty will get back to you as soon as he receives the message in the office.
LOCAL MEXICO CLAIMS LINE!!
For claims service, while using your U.S. or Canada cell phone, you can reach Seguros El Potosi directly at 951 412-5313 or our staff in Baja directly by calling 011 52 66 463 47 175. The 800 Mexico phone line will just ring with no answer if you don't call them from a Mexican cell phone or landline.

UPDATE INFO - MEXICO
URGENT INFORMATION *****MEXICO CUSTOMS DOES IT AGAIN!!!***********
TRUCK CAMPERS - NOT ALLOWED UNLESS YOU HAVE A 1/2 TON TRUCK!
WE HAD A MEETING TODAY (AUG 16TH) WITH CUSTOMS OFFICIALS AND WAS TOLD THAT ANY TRUCK OTHER THAN A 1/2 TON CARRYING A CAMPER WOULD NOT BE ISSUED A VEHICLE PERMIT!  

They go by the GVW on the vehicle and combined with the camper is over the Mexican Law limits for a tourist permit - Motorhomes are exempted from this!  

​There can be some exceptions with an "additional fee"...(lol)..
However they did tell us that if you can get the "Truck/Camper registered in your state as a "motorhome", they would issue a 10 year permission.

November 2021 ---- South Texas Borders - The Mission Border ANZALDIAS INTERNATIONAL ... THE MEXICO CUSTOMS IS ALLOWING THESE VEHICLES PASS WITHOUT A 'EXTRA FEE"  ...HOPEFULLY THIS WILL CONTINUE.




>TOURIST VISA PENDING PRICE INCREASE<- 
We've heard from our Mexico Government sources that the FMM Tourist Visa may have a rate increase as soon as next week. If this happens, any tourist visa that hasn't been validated at the border crossing will be null and void and No refunds will be made.
Therefore if you're holding an un-activated visa you need to get to the border ASAP and have it activated.
Just as soon as we confirm this possible price increase and the amount, I will send you that information.
Remember, always put 180 days in the area of how long you will be staying. This is so you don't have to purchase another Visa within the next 6 months.
Wishing you the best for 2021,

Mexico Driver’s License Insurance Policy Details
One of the most requested and popular Mexico Insurance policies just got better with ADA VIS Global and Seguros El Potosi S.A. This policy is conveniently attached to an individual’s driver’s license insuring the diver on any vehicle he/she may operate in the Republic of Mexico. This policy DOES NOT include any physical damage, or theft to the vehicle. The following are specific coverage’s that are included in the policy:
